Hello;<br />Spark, Compression, Fuel, Crankcase pressure.<br />Sounds like you have covered the fuel thing. are you getting fuel to your plugs?<br />What is the compression?<br />If you have good spark, there is nothing wrong with your teather or cut off switch.<br />When these engines get tired they loose crankcase pressure. Strating them cold is difficult at best, hard to check. If everything else is in place (above stuff) cheat the carb with fuel with a spray bottle, if it fires, starts, then starts ok after walmed up, could be a crankcase pressure problem. Re-ring time.<br />Spark, Compression, Fuel, start from the start.<br />Good Luck. Rob
